Fresno State’s Coach Spencer thoughts on CGC

“CGC is a fantastic way for junior golfers to understand what it takes to become a successful college golfer. To have many major college golf coaches at these events allows for juniors to see first hand what we do to make our players better. It is a blast to be involved in these camps and help junior golfers with aspirations of playing college golf.” – Chad Spencer, Fresno State University, Head Golf Coach
